A trusted advisor for complex commercial disputes

Our company engaged Stephen Hudson at Kilpatrick Townsend to handle a high-stakes dispute involving a breach of contract and complex financing arrangements with a former partner. From our first meeting, it was clear we were dealing with an attorney of exceptional caliber. His four decades of experience, particularly in commercial litigation and banking and finance matters, were immediately evident. He didn't just understand the legal statutes; he grasped the intricate financial mechanisms at the heart of our case, which was crucial. His recognition as a 'Lawyer of the Year' in Litigation - Banking and Finance was well-earned, as his strategic approach was both aggressive and meticulously calculated. Stephen personally guided our executive team through every deposition and negotiation, demystifying the process with clear, direct advice. The outcome was overwhelmingly favorable, securing our financial position entirely. If there is a minor critique, it would be that during the most intense phases, response times from his direct line could occasionally stretch to a full business day, though his associate was always available as a backup. Overall, Stephen Hudson is a formidable advocate whose deep expertise in Atlanta's legal and financial landscape is an invaluable asset. We would not hesitate to recommend him for any serious commercial litigation.
